Yes, Jodie, no reality show or press conference from you a la Kardashians and luv ya all the more for it. No ever badmouthing from her either about fellow actors or directors, and she's seen EVERYTHING in Hollywood to write a book ! She keeps it real, low key and good humored, and that's prob how she is when the cameras aren't rolling. So many great movies and iconic performances. She lets her work speak for a life that's fully lived and realized. Finally lost it when she gives that moving tribute to her mom at the end. Bravo ! Miss ya, Jodie !

She makes 50 look 30! Yet you can tell she’s aged naturally and beautifully, and you can tell she takes care of herself, protects her skin, eats right and works out. She looks healthy and fit, radiant and absolutely stunning. As a gay woman, who came out later in life, not only do I respect her tremendously and felt immense joy and pride when she did this, I also intimately and personally know the courage it took her to do this. And her thanks to her Mom was so heartfelt, bittersweet (does her mom have dementia?? To me Jodie’s speech seemed to allude to as much) and meaningful, it moved me to tears. Besides being an incredible actress, one of the very best of her generation, Jodie Foster is strength, class, intelligence, humility, and genuineness personified. Focusing heavily on the coming out aspect of her speech, many seem to skip over the fact that this speech also contains her announcement to semi retire from stage and screen. Which is a bit sad considering her enormous talent on screen and behind the camera; yet I cannot wait to see what she does next. I’m thinking either teaching acting as an honorary professor at her alma mater or writing novels. She’s incredibly intelligent with a genius level IQ and MENSA membership, learned to read and was memorizing lines at 3 years of age, was valedictorian of her senior class, is an Ivy League, magna cum laude graduate of Yale University which also awarded her an honorary doctorate, and is fluent in four languages. I’d wager her success at anything she puts her mind too. 👍

I wrote the following not only as a gay woman, but as a gay Jewish woman ✡️. Also, I may have written too much…but it is what it is 😂: Perhaps that fact actually means something else about him. Like, maybe he isn’t as homophobic as he once was? Maybe he isn’t actually homophobic at all anymore? His friendship with Jodie may have helped tear down some of his walls supported by prejudice and preconceived notions. Maybe his love for a gay friend and their relationship, and seeing HER relationship, helped to change his heart and mind. After all, she said he saved her too. Meaning at some point he must have told her she saved him. Maybe he’s grown and expanded his understanding and grown as a person. Maybe when he stopped drinking and got sober, he was then lucid enough to actually do so. 🤷🏼♀️ We all F up, make mistakes. Some can have ingrained in them ugly preconceived, stereotypical notions about groups of people they’ve never met; as a result of parents, family, childhood environment and upbringing, indoctrination of religion, instilled belief systems and cultural and family structures. Sometimes they are so deep within, one may not even realize they’re there; or they may usually hide it because somewhere inside them is a conscience that tells them it’s wrong, they know it’s not widely acceptable socially to be a bigot, and they could also feel shame at those thoughts and instilled beliefs. Yet if you add in substance abuse, sometimes there are flood gates that get blown wide open, and all of that hate water comes pouring out. And once the gates blow, you can’t put that flood water back in. It’s too late at that point. I’m not making excuses for his prior behavior, bigotry, misogyny, belief system of condemnation and hate speech. It was inexcusable and disgusting. And he has to own it, like we all have to own our own crap. I’m just attempting to present the why behind the what. That why is what needs to be acknowledged and understood before a newly sober person can start to actualize those things, and begin to make healthy changes and choices for the better. Because I firmly believe the average person deserves the opportunity to atone, make amends, change their destructive, hate filled, hurtful behavior and ingrained thought patterns, and earn a second chance. Why? Because People can learn from their mistakes, they can grow, evolve, become better human beings. After all, if we don’t and just stay stuck, in a state of arrested development never learning anything new, what’s the point of life? Would life still be worth living? And what kind of horrible world would we be living IN, with what kind of horrible people, if no one was ever given the chance to do that? Blind Hatred, prejudice, propaganda, bigotry, racism-We are not born with any of this inside us; these things are TAUGHT, these things are LEARNED. Which means they can be unlearned too. If not, all hope for humanity would truly be lost. I for one, refuse to ever give up all hope.
